Mabel Quinn was still asleep and had not woken up.
The driver tiptoed over and said to Daniel Harris, "Young Master, we are heading down the mountain now. Should we wake up Miss Quinn?"
"She has a fever and has twisted her ankle, let her keep sleeping. I’ll carry her down the mountain," Daniel Harris replied.
The driver was startled, "You carry Miss Quinn? But you..." The driver halted mid-sentence, not daring to voice the unspoken words.
"I can carry her. You just guide the way ahead," Daniel Harris said.
So the driver could only carefully place Mabel Quinn on Daniel Harris’s back and cautiously guide the path in front of him.
Fortunately, Mabel Quinn slept deeply and did not wake. Daniel Harris carried Mabel Quinn step by step forward,
Mabel, do you know? I can’t carry you when you’re awake, only when you’re asleep, can I carry you .
Mabel, tell me, if in this lifetime, I love you, but you are destined never to love me, then why did fate let me meet you?
Is there really fairness in this world? If there is, then what is fairness to me?
If possible, I wish I could carry you forever, carry you until we grow old, until death.
Carry you until the end of time...
But, such an opportunity, perhaps will never be, will never be...

Dorian Howards and Alice Conley searched the mountain for people, growing more anxious with each passing second without success. Just as dawn was breaking, Dorian Howards received a call from Mrs. Han, saying that Daniel Harris and Mabel Quinn had been found and were now coming down the mountain.
Although Alice Conley breathed a sigh of relief, Dorian Howards became even more anxious.
Mabel Quinn had been found, but what about Kyle Kinston? Where is Kyle now?
"Don’t worry, Kyle Kinston is much better at wilderness survival than Mabel and Daniel. They are fine, so what could happen to Kyle Kinston?" Alice Conley said.
Dorian Howards was left speechless, unable to speak about the Kinston Family’s Blood Curse and could only stew in frustration.
Dorian Howards took out his phone and dialed Kyle Kinston’s phone again.
Throughout the night on the mountain, he had lost count of how many times he had called Kyle’s phone.
Once again, there was no answer, but just as he was about to hang up, Alice Conley suddenly said, "Hey, don’t rush. I think I hear a phone ringing."
Dorian Howards paused, then quieted himself to listen and indeed heard the ringing.
So the two of them followed the direction of the ringing sound.
When they found Kyle Kinston, Alice Conley gasped. Kyle Kinston was lying in the muddy ground littered with dried leaves, his clothes torn to shreds, with numerous scratches on his face, hands, and some skin exposed outside his clothes. There was even dried blood at the corner of his lips.
And one of Kyle Kinston’s hands was clutching a mobile phone tightly, while the other was twisted in a contorted position, clawing at the ground as if he were in painful struggle.
That phone... Alice Conley recognized it as Mabel Quinn’s phone.
But how was Mabel’s phone in Kyle Kinston’s hand? And why did Kyle appear as though he had been through a brutal ordeal?
